MAKE WAY FOR THE DOZE-
crocket go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

haha heavy looking like payday 2 bulldozer

would a style without the mask be possible?

The entire bomb defusal aesthetic has really taken on another form in the realm of videogames, as it's become a way to allow game designers in other titles to make enemy classes that're very obviously meant to be some sort of tank/heavy weapons class: You've got the Dozer in the Payday games and, which I'm willing to assume this is taking its inspiration from, the Juggernauts from Call of Duty.

While those are games that're very modern in their timelines, inspiration from a lot of modern-day games can still work in a game like TF2 if done right. This here feels like its on the right track, it just needs a bit of a tweak.

This being a bit too contemporary for TF2 is something I totally understand; a lot of the cosmetics in this set do feel way too modern for what this game's set in, even though I do really think this is some super solid work that does totally fit the Heavy, since I could totally imagine him decking himself out in a Juggernaut suit like so.

This entire set making heavy totally unrecognisable is something I'm gonna call balogna on, because this is a cosmetic set that's being given to arguably the largest and most recognisably tanky character in the entire game. This isn't drastically changing up his silhouette to the point that he's unrecognisable, he still has a bullet bandolier on him which is his most recognisable element on his entire character model and he's still got his weapon roster & animations that also add to his class recognition, much like every other character in this game.

Jesus christ, I don't know how to feel about this set. It's like looking at a completely new character.
While i must commend a fellow work-shopper for putting such effort into a cosmetic set, none of the equipment feels like it's from the 60s. Even if it was, you wouldn't be able to tell because of how dark it makes the heavy. Swapping his recognisable red T for a black long sleeve with deep red plating just seems like a serious (yet admit-idly) minor advantage against other players. And of course lastly, I cannot picture heavy wearing BOMB DEFUSAL gear like he used to live in Dust 2.

I apologise for the rant but I do feel like this kinda stuff needs to be pressed onto people on the workshop community.

forgot to mention "new style"

give him a faceplate with the payday bulldozer skull or similar painted over it pls

indeed
